Album Review: They really want to be hard, but it is pretty non-threatening, frequently incorporating piano in, making a sort of chamber goth rock sound. The shout call & response is strong with this album, and emotional whoa's punctuate the record throughout. The songs can be catchy at times, but its produced in a manner not to my liking. Lucy almost sounds like a Ben Folds or Keane song.
The core of the band met in High School, and went through a couple band name changes before and after Dropping Daylight. Davin and Englund even went to Berklee College of Music.
